Middle Earth Nursery Rhymes

[Raefindel]

There was an old Wizard who traversed the land
with a crooked, blue hat and a staff in his hand.
A Hobbit he sought,an adventure to share.
Gold to recover when they got there.

There was an old Wizard who went to the Shire
He had 13 dwarves and they did conspire
He gave them a map, and with it a key.
And also a Hobbit who missed Morning Tea

[Samwise]

LOL, Rae!! Got to think one of those up, myself!!
Sam sat in the bows, clutching the sides, and looking back wistfully to the shore. The sunlight glittering on the water dazzled his eyes.

[Kalimac]

How many leagues to Orodruin?
Three score leagues and ten.
Can I get there by Phial-light?
Yes, if you travel cloaked by night
And keep your guide within your sight
You can get there by Phial-light.

[Raefindel]

That was great Kalimac! I know you guys would be good at this! smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[Rimbaud]

All the Istari
Sat in their saris,
Eating their curds & whey.
When down came a Sauron,
(A bit of a moron)
And that did spoil their day.

[Raefindel]

I love it Stephanos! LOL!

[Quenyachick]

Hey Can i do a limerick?? I will neway!

There once was a mage called Olorin,
Who needed a pipe every mornin,
Of the finest pipe-weed,
He was ever in need,
Cos he found tobacco too borin!

Ok so not brill but hey! smilies/tongue.gif

[Samwise]

Ugh...been racking my brains, and this is the best I could come up with so far.

There was a hobbit couple who lived in a hole
they had lots of children, which didn't bother them at all.
She was a loving wife
he a gardner for hire
and all those children?
Why, they replenished the Shire.
"There was a lot more," said Sam, "all about Mordor. I didn't learn that part, it gave me the shivers. "

[Raefindel]

Very good Samwise and Quenyachic. smilies/smile.gif

[Elenya]

Sauron had a little ring, little ring, little ring
Sauron had a little ring, and it was made of gold.
He used the ring to scare the kids, scare the kids, scare the kids.
He used the ring to scare the kids, and so this tale was told.
A little hobbit found the rind, found the ring, found the ring
A little hobbit found the ring, and kept it in his cave.
Another hobbit came along, came along, came along
Another hobbit came along, and took the ring from him
He left the one ring to Frodo, to Frodo, to Frodo
He left the one ring to Frodo, and Gandalf got freaked out
He told Frodo to leave at once, leave at once, leave at once
He told Frodo to leave at once, and he took his pal Sam along
They came among two other friends, other friends, other friends
They came among two other friends, called Merry and Pippin
They saw a ringwraith on the path, on the path, on the path
They saw a ringwraith on the path, and they set out for th'old town Bree
Strider came upon them there, upon them there, upon them there
Strider came upon them there, and led them to Rivendell

Feel free to finish!

[Nevfeniel]

and all those children?
Why, they replenished the Shire.

Hahahahahahaha! smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[Kalimac]

Replenishing the Shire, neat smilies/biggrin.gif . Hey, it's true - the Shire's population couldn't have been *that* big,

This is the Ring that Baggins stole.

This is heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole.

This is the friend, who stayed by the heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole.

This is the Stoor all shrunken and worn, who betrayed the friend, who stayed by the heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole.

This is Eye all fiery with scorn, who tortured the Stoor all shrunken and worn, who betrayed the friend, who stood by heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole.

This is King who looked in the Stone, who diverted the Eye all fiery with scorn, who tortured the Stoor all shrunken and worn, who betrayed the friend, who stood by the heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole.

This is the Elf-maiden, fair and alone, who loved the King who looked in the Stone, who diverted the Eye all fiery with scorn, who tortured the Stoor all shrunken and worn, who betrayed the friend, who stood by the heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole.

This is the Wizard, triumphant at morn, who joined the Elf-maiden, fair and alone, with the King who looked in the ancient Stone, who diverted the Eye all fiery with scorn, who tortured the Stoor all shrunken and worn, who betrayed the friend, who stood by the heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole.

OK, not great, but there it is. Bet you didn't think I'd write the whole thing out, did you? smilies/smile.gif

[Raefindel]

It was excellent, Kalimac! much better than mine! smilies/smile.gif

[Birdland]

Glorfindel's Lament

Ride an Elf horse to Bruinen Ford
to rescue a hobbit, you plucky Elf Lord!
'Gainst Ring Wraiths and Balrogs
You always will win,
but you blew the audition
and now you're ARWEN?

[Raefindel]

LOL! I LOVE IT!

[Kalimac]

That's wonderful, Birdland!! (Poor old Glorfindel...his name definitely lives on in song, but maybe not quite the way he'd pictured it smilies/smile.gif)

Poor little Smeagol
Murdered poor Deagol
Just for a chance at the Ring.
Thus he was foredone
And goodness did shun
And at last was destroyed by the thing.

[Samwise]

Thought up this one (as well as my last riddle)on the way home from the dr. this morning, what that says, I don't know, but here it is:
---------------------------------------------
Evil lord Sauron
has lost his Ring
and dosen't know where
to find it.
Leave it alone
and a hobbit will bring it home
and for the good of Middle-Earth
throw it in a fire pit!
Sam sat in the bows, clutching the sides, and looking back wistfully to the shore. The sunlight glittering on the water dazzled his eyes.

[Raefindel]

Great Job, Samwise & Birdland! smilies/smile.gif

There once was a nasty hobbit
who was old and very mean,
She'd yell and complain,
all the live long day,
until she got Bilbo's key!

[Lady_Báin]

this is just a little note to say that you guys all had great ones keep it up they're hilarious smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif five grins up!

agggghhhhh cheese not sheese *pounds head on keyboard*

[Elenya]

Gollum was a hobbit
With a fetish for the Ring
He followed Sam and Frodo around
With hopes, of his precious, to cling
The lust was too much
He began to throw a fit
And finally got a hold on that thing
And fell into a pit!

I personally have nothing against Gollum, he's one of my favorites smilies/biggrin.gif
Hey Kalimac: Love the signature!

[ April 16, 2002: Message edited by: Elenya ]

Nice job, Alchrivewen and Elenya. smilies/smile.gif

[Elenya]

Thanks muchas! I like yours too!

[Samwise]

Boromir! Come blow your horn!
There're Orcs in the farmlands
and they ain't there to steal corn!
"And after all, sir," added Sam, "you did ought to take the elves' advice. Gildor said you should take them as was willing, and you can't deny it. "

[Samwise]

Great Job, Samwise & Birdland!
TY, Miss Rae! Hee--this is fun!
Sam stood by him, his round eyes wide open - for he was looking across lands he had never seen to a new horizon.

[Auriel Haevasawen]

Okay, despite the fact I mangle the English language daily for my work I am no poet so this has taken me ages and isn't that hot. Nevermind here goes:

Bye baby Halfling
Aragorn's gone a hunting
To fetch on orc or goblin skin
To wrap our little Hobbit in.

Actually that's quite gross. He could be done for Hobbit-abuse. Sorry I'll try a different tack.

[Raefindel]

OOOooohhh, that WAS gross, Auriel, but it was funny. Thanks for joining.

I'm not a good writer and had to really think about it before I posted one.

Where are you from? is English your primary language?

[Auriel Haevasawen]

Yes I am English. Although technically I am actually living in Middle Earth as I live near Sarehole, the original inspiration for the Shire. It is my primary language as you so beautifully put it but I also speak German, French, some Spanish and Gaelic. Sounds cool but wrecks your ability to spell. Now back to thinking up another rhyme.

[Samwise]

Bye baby Halfling
Aragorn's gone a hunting
To fetch on orc or goblin skin
To wrap our little Hobbit in.


Here's a possible adaptation:

Bye baby Halfling
Bilbo once went a hunting
Brought back a little Mithril skin
To wrap an "Elven Princeling" in!
(Yeah, Mithril's not "skin", but this rhyme is what that made me think of...)
"Gollum's doing, I'll be bound," said Sam to Frodo. "And a nice place to choose, too. The River seems set on taking us right into their arms! "

[Raefindel]

That was great Samwise! smilies/biggrin.gif

[Auriel Haevasawen]

Brilliant and loads less gross than mine.

[Birdland]

The Balrog Debate

Khazad-dûm is falling down, falling down, falling down
Khazad-dûm is falling down,
There goes Gandalf.

Crack the whip and spread your wings, spread your wings, spread your wings,
Crack the whip and spread your wings,

Silly twit, there are no wings, are no wings, are no wings,

Those are merely shadows.

[Kalimac]

Birdland, ooh, that was vicious smilies/evil.gif . Which makes me think...

Jack and Jill went up the hill
To read H.o.M.E.
Jack thoughts did drift and so he left
While Jill screamed "Philistine!"

Kinda feeble, I know, but the best I can come up with a long hiatus.

[Samwise]

That was great Samwise!
Thankee, Miss Rae! smilies/wink.gif

"It's a shame to wake you." whispered Sam, "but that's what you said. "

[Gimli Son Of Gloin]

There once was a hobbit
Who found a gold ring.
Which was forged by Sauron,
An evil king smilies/evil.gif

He left it to Frodo
Instead of some cash,
Who snuck into Mordor
And burned it to ash.
----------------------------------------
How do you like it? Wrote it in five minutes smilies/biggrin.gif

[pippin_took0]

lol! I don't think I could make up anything as good as these... I'll just leave it to you, as you all seem to be so good at it!

[Samwise]

LOL, Gimli!
"That's about it," said Sam. "I'll keep watch. I can sleep tomorrow, being no more than luggage in a boat, as you might say. "

[Raefindel]

LOL, Birdland, Gimli, and Kalimac! smilies/smile.gif

[Samwise]

More oddness...

Hush, evil Sauron
don't say a word
sorry, but you're not going to rule the world
A plucky little hobbit's got your Ring
He's gonna make sure he destroys that thing!
"I met Sam going up the hill and told him to follow me; but plainly he did not do so. he guessed his master's mind and came back here before Frodo had gone. He did not find it easy to leave Sam behind! " ~Aragorn, TTT

[Samwise]

Okay, one more then I'll quit (well, for today... smilies/wink.gif )
One, two, three diverse Walkers
four, five, six diverse Walkers
seven, eight, nine diverse Walkers
all heading toward Mordor.

Nine, eight, seven diverse Walkers
six, five, four diverse Walkers
three, two, one little Walker
made it to Mordor with a friend.

'Kay, that's it, I promise! smilies/biggrin.gif
"So my plan is all spoilt!" said Frodo. "It is no good trying to escape you. But I'm glad, Sam. It is plain that we were meant to go together. "

[Raefindel]

Thought I'd ressurect this thread so the newbies could give it a shot. Anyone care to add a new one?

[LadyElbereth]

Here's one!

*Little Bo Peep*

Evil Lord Sauron has lost his ring
and doesn't know where to find it
leave it alone and it'll come home
dragging two hobbits behind it!

~LadyElbereth

[Diamond18]

Well, I'm a Wight, not a newbie. But I've only been here since September, so I'm glad this post has been revieved:

Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of Ring:
Four and twenty crebain
Flying on a wing.

Gollum is fond of fishes,
And Elves like to sing,
Was not that a dainty dish
To set before the King?

The King was on Caradhras,
Climbing up the summit,
The Queen was in Rivendell,
Glorfindel wasn’t.

The hobbit was in the garden,
Trimming up the trees,
When down swooped Gandalf,
And accused him of dropping eaves.

[hobbitlass]

These are great!

(I'm a little teapot)
I'm a little hobbit short and stout
Samwise and I are on a rough route
When I throw the ring in
Hear me shout
Mt Doom will explode, get the heck out

(POP goes the weasel)
All around the elvish place
the peoples had a council
Elrond named it the Fellowship
POP! goes the one ring.

Fellowship set out on a quest
then lost a few of its members
Two hobbits made it to Mt Doom
POP! goes the one ring

(I posted this in the limmericks, but I'll add it here, too)
There is a land called the Shire
it housed a burgler for hire
he went on his way
with dwarves oh so gay
and a wizard who played with fire.

(not homosexual)

[LadyElbereth]

here another one!

*little miss muffet*

Poor Fatty Lumpkin
sat on a pumkin
eating his elevenses(sp?)
along came a man-eating spider
and sat down beside him
then carried poor Fatty Lumpkin away!

smilies/biggrin.gif

[Elven Mistress]

OMG! Kalimac!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVED! the first one!!!!!!!!!

I've been trying SO hard to come up with one...

There once was a hobbit from shire
Who sold everyone a tire
He woke up one day
With nothing left to say
But, "Fire! fire!"

--okay, that made NO sense, but i just felt that i had to add something--

[Raefindel]

LOL! those were great everyone! Good Job.

[Diamond18]

(Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater).

Pippin, Pippin, the Foolish Took,
Had a palantír and couldn't keep it;
He switched it for a rounded stone,
And talked with Sauron all alone.

(Mary Mary Quite Contrary)

Merry, Merry, quite contrary,
How did that halfling grow!
With Scatha's horn and Sam's scorn,
They beat the Chief's men in a row.

(row = fight)

[Samwise]

LOL!!! Those are great!!

[LadyElbereth]

I love the "I'm a little tea pot" one!
hmmm...

This little hobbit likes to write
This little hobbit can't sing
This little hobbit puts up a fight
This little hobbit had the Ring
This little hobbit said,"Wait, Wait, Wait! What about my afternoon tea?"

Go away.

Wreak havoc on Middle Earth
some other day.

Lame, I know. If anyone didn't know, that was the LOTR version of "Rain, Rain, Go Away!" Heh. smilies/biggrin.gif

[Diamond18]

What are little orcs made of, made of?
What are little orcs made of?
Whips and spikes and grubby head lice,
And that’s what little orcs are made of!

~~~~~~~~~

Bah, bah, Dark Lord,
Have you any Rings?
Yes, marry, have I,
Such precious things!
One ring to rule them all,
One ring to find them,
One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them!

~~~~~~~~~

Peregrin and Meriadoc resolved to have a battle,
For Peregrin said Meriadoc had spoiled his nice new rattle.
Just then flew by a monstrous fell-beast,
As big as a tar barrel,
Which frightened both the heroes so,
They quite forgot their quarrel.

~~~~~~~~~

Sam and Bill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water,
Bill fell down and broke his crown,
And Sam laughed at him ever after.

[LadyElbereth]

Hey diddle diddle
the dwarf and the fiddle
Bilbo got stuck in the trees
all the goblins laughed to see such sport
and Beorn had a hive full of bees.

[hobbitlass]

This is my 7 year-old's poem.....

Hobbit's are blue.
Wizard's are new.
Dwarves and elves are glue.
Men are pens.
Orcs are hands. smilies/tongue.gif

[hobbitlass]

(Have to be fair...this is my 5 year-old's poem)

Wizards can make fire.
Hobbits eat mushrooms.
But Frodo has a ring.
Pippin says- The quest is long. smilies/evil.gif

[LadyElbereth]

Awwww, those are so cute, hobbitlass!

[Diamond18]

Here's one you've probably never heard of! I only changed a very few words, to "LotRize" it. You know how most hobbits were suspicious of Elves or anything of the outside world, so...

My mother said, I never should
Play with Elves in the wood.
If I did, then she would say:
Naughty lass to disobey.
You hair shan’t curl on your head or feet.
You Elven girl you shan’t be mine!
And my father said that if I did,
He’d rap me with a teapot lid.

My mother said that I never should
Play with Elves in the wood.
The wood was dark, the grass was green;
By came an Elf with a tambourine.
I went to sea—no ship to get across;
I paid ten shillings for a tall white horse.
I upped on his back and was off in a crack,
Tell my mother I shall never come back!

[TolkienGurl]

To the tune of "Sing a Song of Six-pence"

Sing a song of Nine Rings,
Nine Men so proud and tall.
Seven Rings for Dwarves
who lived in their stony halls.
Elven Rings were wrought and
T'were given to Three Kings.
But Sauron came to Earth
And destroyed these pretty things.

[ October 30, 2002: Message edited by: TolkienGurl ]

[TolkienGurl]

To the tune "Rock-a-bye Baby"

Good Bye, Frodo
Leaving Bag End
Off to Mordor
With a friend.
He'll stay with you
Till darkness comes
Protect you and carry you
Without qualms.

One from a good friend of mine, Puff the Orc.

Wee Willie Nazgul rides through the town,
Upstairs downstairs in his frightgown,
Rapping at the window,
Prying at the lock
Are the hobbits all asleep?
For it’s past 12 o’clock!

smilies/redface.gif

[Hilde Bracegirdle]

Smeagol, Smeagol hates the sun.
Stole a ring and away did run.
The ring was lost,
Smeagol was cross
and his precious went on to
exact its cost.

There was an old wizard who was quite aloof.
He kept many orcs, but not under his roof.
He made them work hard and treated them poor,
and whipped them up fiercely and sent them to war.

[Pennthangeil]

i got this off a site dont remember where so DONT SUE ME !

"The time has come" the Balrog said
"To talk of other things.
Of elves and dwarves and mortal men
but not "Do I have wings?"

"Of Isldur in his pride
The Dark Lord in his pain
The little Hobbits in their sloth
Til the ring was found again!"

"The dragon's greed
The Wormtoung's lust
and Shelob's guttony
The pits of Mordor deep and dark
Those crying to be free!'

"A wizards envy brought him down
And made him slave to sin
And angers' found all around
In every wayside inn"

[Rumil]

O Gimli, did you hurt yourself,
falling from that masonry?
If not, please do it once again,
because this elf here didn't see.

[Pennthangeil]

O, Come to the Shire
my young lads and lasses
To the home of round doors and of kelly green grasses
The hills are a-rolling and so are our tunes
And all of the young ones are laughing like loons

Sorry Samwise, but the thought of Boromir as “Little Boy Blue” was a good one!

Oh son of Denethor
Come blow your horn!
There’s orcs on the Anduin
And you’re passed the mallorn.
Where is lord Boromir
‘ere troubles run deep?
He’s catching young Frodo,
his ring for to keep.

[Samwise]

No apology necessary (still thinking...) smilies/rolleyes.gif

[Samwise]

Okay...

Old Bilbo was a merry old soul
who had an eleventy-onthe birthday party.
He called all the Hobbits, and an old wizard friend
and his heir, a ring for to see.

[Hilde Bracegirdle]

Only indirectly ME related & not Mother Goose but here it goes:

‘Twas brilliant and the forum good,
Did agree not quibble on each page.
All matchless conversation stood,
And no Wight was outraged.

“Beware the Balrog threads, my son!
The shadow wings are a slippery path!
Beware the fangirl threads and shun,
The moderator’s wrath!”

He took his vorpal mouse in hand:
Longtime the legend’s foe he sought,
Through many a thread both wild and bland.
The computer locked up, distraught.

And slowly flickered on the screen,
The Balrog with his eyes of flame,
came scrolling down in black and green,
the tower grinding as it came!

Point one! Point two! And through and through!
His keyboard sang with click and clack!
The connection dead, and with it said,
He went galumphing back.

“And hast thou conquered the Balrog then?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”
He chortled in his joy.

‘Twas brilliant and the forum good
with posts aplenty on the site.

Wights typing through the night. smilies/biggrin.gif

Nice to see this thread going again! smilies/biggrin.gif Must think up more silly stuff... smilies/biggrin.gif

[Silmarien]

Once a gloomy hobbit
Sat on Orodruin,
Under the shade
Of a some rocks by the path,
And he sang as he watched
And waited 'til the Master came
"You'll come a-waltzing,
My precious, with me."

Waltzing My precious,
Waltzing My precious
You'll come a-waltzing,
My precious, with me
And he sang as he watched
And waited 'til the Master came,
"You'll come a-waltzing,
My precious, with me."

Past came the Master,
On the back of Faithful Sam,
Up jumped the hobbit
And grabbed him with glee,
But he was fought off
And had to wait ‘til further up,
To go a-waltzing,
My precious, with me.

Waltzing My precious,
Waltzing My precious
You'll come a-waltzing,
My precious, with me
And he sang as he watched
And waited 'til the Master came,
"You'll come a-waltzing,
My precious, with me."

He fought with the Master,
And bit off the ring finger,
Up flew the Ringwraiths,
One, two, three,
"Where's that jolly one ring
You've got in your clasped fist?
You'll come a-waltzing,
My precious, with me."

Waltzing My precious,
Waltzing My precious
You'll come a-waltzing,
My precious, with me
And he sang as he watched
And waited 'til the sun went down,
"You'll come a-waltzing,
My precious, with me."

Up jumped the hobbit,
Sprang into the fiery pit,
"You'll never catch me
Alive," said he,
And his ghost may be heard
As you pass by the fiery mount,
”You'll come a-waltzing,
My precious, with me.”

Waltzing My precious,
Waltzing My precious
You'll come a-waltzing,
My precious, with me
And he sang as he watched
And waited 'til the sun went down,
"You'll come a-waltzing,
My precious, with me."

I just found one for Sam

Yokie pokie,
Yankie, fun,
How do you like
Your tatters done?

First in brandy,
then in rum,
That's how I like
My tatters done.

and

Sammywise, Sammywise, where have you been?
I've been to Gondor to visit the king.
Sammywise, Sammywise, what did you there?
...well more than I can fit into one line!

When I was walking to Rivendell,
I met a man with 7 elves,
each elf had 7 sacks,
each sack had 7 rabbits,
each rabbit had 7 carrots,
each carrot had 7 bugs,
Bugs, carrots, rabbits, Elves,
How many were going to Rivendell.

he'll be in trouble deep.
If I had taters, onions
(and Stinker would get here faster)
I would have a dainty dish
to set before my master.

(Gandalf to Gwaihir)

Orodruin is falling down, falling down, falling down,
Orodruin is falling down, my fair eagle.
Get the hobbits and bring them back, bring them back, bring them back,
Get the hobbits and bring them back, my fair eagle.
